Stability Ball Dip
The bench dip with the hands on a stability ball behind you instead of a bench; the ball wobbles, so the shoulders have to hold it steady.
How to do it
Setup
Hands on a stability ball behind the hips, fingers forward, legs straight in front, heels on the floor.
Steps
- Bend the elbows and lower the hips in front of the ball.
- Keep the ball still under the hands.
- Press back up until the arms are straight.
Common mistakes
Ball rolling away: press straight down, and set it against a wall if it drifts. Going too deep: stop with the upper arms level. Hips drifting away from the ball: keep them close.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
